WASHINGTON, Sept. 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Corporate Whistleblower Center says, "We are probably the best branded source in the nation for whistleblower rewards for employees exposing their employer for falsely labeling themselves as a minority or woman owned business. As we would like to discuss anytime at 866-714-6466 a Veteran owned business is also mandated to get preference when bidding for federal contracts. On August 10th, 2017, the Department of Justice announced a $16 million-dollar settlement with a company that had been falsely claiming to be a Veteran owned business. In this instance, the whistleblower will receive $2.9 million dollars.

"The problem with the process to bid for federal contracts or work is a company can make up facts about who owns or runs the company without it ever being true. In the example, we are citing the company claimed to be Veteran owned. However, we think in most instances the business falsely characterizing itself as a minority or disadvantaged business is a woman owned business-where in reality a man runs and probably co- owns the business with his wife or girl-friend. If you work for an employer like this and you know or can prove the company is unfairly gaming the federal bidding process please call us at 866-714-646 and let's discuss the reward potential of your information. Why sit on a potentially winning lotto ticket without ever knowing what it might be worth?" http://CorporateWhistleblower.Com

The Corporate Whistleblower Center is especially interested in talking to an employee who can prove their employer is falsely claiming to be a minority, women or Veteran owned business for government contracts if they work for a:

Highway contractor or road builder
A food distribution company providing meals for school lunch programs
A company providing private security services
A company providing construction services
A company involved in transportation
A logistics Company
A Moving Company
A company providing engineering services
An architectural firm

Simple rules for a whistleblower from the Corporate Whistleblower Center: Do not go to the government first if you want to become a whistleblower: The Corporate Whistleblower Center says, "Major whistleblowers frequently go to the government thinking they will help. It's a huge mistake. Do not go to the news media with your whistleblower information either. Any type of public revelation of a whistleblower's information could destroy the prospect for a reward. Do not try to force a government contractor or individual to come clean about overbilling the federal government out of millions of dollars, by failing to abide by the terms of contract with the federal government or by falsely claiming to be a minority, woman or veteran owned business."

The Corporate Whistleblower Center wants to emphasize there are high quality whistleblowers in every state, including California, New York, New Jersey, Florida, Texas, Massachusetts, Maryland, Rhode Island, Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota, North Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, Washington, or Alaska.
